Peru
Estadio Rodrigo Paz Delgado will host Tuesday’s World Cup qualifier between Ecuador and Peru. La Tricolor failed to spoil Brazil’s party at Estadio Couto Pereira, but they are seen as hot favourites to beat Peru in front of home fans. Talented midfielder Kendry Paez is widely expected to return to the starting XI, while experienced forward Enner Valencia should keep his place up front alongside Kevin Rodriguez.
La Bicolor, on the other hand, aim to put an end to their four-game winless run in all competitions. Even though Peru produced a fine display in a 1-1 draw with star-studded Colombia, home win should be considered as Jorge Fossati’s troops are not regarded as good travellers. Both Valera and Callens limped off with injuries in the last qualifying match, with duo Abram – Ormeno being ready to step up. Fossati should stick to the 3-5-2 formation.
Highlighted Team (Ecuador):
Ecuador had endured difficult times in footballing terms having been considered to be one of the more struggling football nations in South America, but the Tri have managed to transform themselves into a team that can never be taken lightly at the international scene.
Ecuador has taken part in three of the 22 World Cups with 12 position they achieved in 2006 in Germany being their best result so far. La Tricolor head into Copa America Centenario tied at the top of CONMEBOL’s World Cup qualifying table and their chances of making it through from group B have been increased with good results and alike performances.
Ivan Hurtado played for El Tri since 1992 to 2014 and former centre-back remains the most capped international with 168 games to his name. Ecuador captain Walter Ayovi is the active player with most games in the national team, while Felipe Caicedo with 19 goals is the top scorer of Gustavo Quinteros’ side.
